There are many benefits of onions. Onion has been used as an element in various dishes for thousands of years by many cultures around the globe. There are many different varieties of onion, red, yellow, white, and green, each with their own unique flavor, from very strong to slightly sweet. Onions can be eaten raw, cooked, fried, dried or roasted.

Onions are high-quality source of fiber and a wealthy source of healthy sulfur compounds. It reduces blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels. It also contains vitamin C and chromium. Chromium is a mineral that helps cells act in response to insulin, ultimately assisting with blood glucose control.

Onion may be a useful herb for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, mainly since they reduce the danger of blood clots. Onion also protects against stomach and other cancers, as well as protecting against certain infections. Onion can improve lung function, particularly in asthmatics.

Avoid onions that have sprout or that have an odor, or that have green or decaying blemishes. If you're prone to crying while cutting onions, try refrigerating them first, then peeling them under running water.

Enough gyan session on onions…… Now something about my recipe Onion rings they are sliced onions covered with a batter and fried. Some recipes use egg or beer batter and things like that but I just like flour and crunchy coat of breadcrumbs. These onion rings are very easy to make and you will enjoy making them.

Kids love this treat. So simple to make, they can do it themselves. You must be wondering why such name actually the mixture resembles a spider. Trust me if u try this they won’t last long at a birthday party or occasions! My mom is not very fond of chocolates so she never cooks anything related with chocolates L so my sisters insisted me to do the honors: D (poor me arghhhh!!!) but how could I say no to chocolate :D so I thought what’s wrong in trying. All thanks to new “food-food” channel I saw this recipe and thought of trying the same.

The history of Baby Corn

Baby corn is available in white and yellow varieties and is usually three to four inches in length. Eaten whole, baby corn is mature corn, simply picked at an earlier stage of growth, and has a much milder flavor than full-grown corn.

Recently I have been to a restaurant, and we ordered a new kind of starter (at least for me). I have heard about Veg. Manchurian and Gobi Manchurian. But I have hardly heard about Baby Corn Manchurian. It was an interesting dish to try out. And here I have tried to reproduce that yummy dish.

Baby Corn Manchurian turned out much better than my expectation. It was crisp, crunchy, saucy, spicy and delicious...Mama mia... Me and my family thoroughly enjoyed eating this new experiment of mine J

Panipuri originated from the Uttar Pradesh region of India. It is a popular, tasty and appetizing snack in the Indian subcontinent.

Gol gappa - Punjab, Haryana, Jharkhand, Bihar

Pani Ke Bataashe - Uttar pradesh

Panipuri - Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra

Phuchka - West Bengal

Gup chup - Orrisa

Pani Puri, has never been one of my favorite snack but since everyone in my family are fond of it I had to have it forcefully :D. I remember me and my mom having pani poori from the pani puri wallah on the streets of Mumbai many a times. As a kid, I used to think how come the puri puffs so much and use to wonder what the magic is.

It’s easier to get a packet of readymade puris from market. But nevertheless you can try making it home if you are cautious of oil and ingredients used to make the puris.I had actually pani puri typical mumbai. You can try using boiled sprouted moong and chana instead of ragda.

I love eating, complete foodie. If you are here for a serious recipe sorry guys hard luck :D. One thing i can assure you is that you may get a glimpse of me and my experiments..... Sometimes you may feel what i have mentioned here is common and you might have even tried it before, but be sober i am not a professional cook trying cooking for the very first time :D

Enjoy and lets see how regular i am here (to be honest how long i try my hands on cooking...)
